Did you install template compatible with Joomla! 3? It looks like your are trying to use Joomla 2.5 product on Joomla 3 installation.

well i am uncertain about the upgrade process. i must upgrade the template under 2.5 to 3.3x first and then upgrade the joomlainstallation to 3.3x. is that correct?

Sorry but you probably have some conflict with maybe 3rd party extension. I've never had any problems with upgrading 2.5.x Joomla to 3.x. Are you sure that you don't have any other extensions which may be incompatible with Joomla 3?
